Flash & PHP => using & or = in return

nuo2000

Hello.

I'm working on something right now in Flash, and it requires it to communicate with a PHP script, which then replies to the Flash program.

In Flash, I will use the command: loadVariablesNum ("Login.php?login="+ Login +"&pass"+ Password, "0");

In PHP, I will have it reply with:
Print "Login=valid&Information=$info";

If $info includes characters such as & or = this will mess up my script, because it will think anything after & is a new variable, and = is the value.

How can I process $info in PHP so that I can send & and = signs, and how do I later process 'info' in Flash to change them back?

Thanks

What you are trying to do is go around serialization. You should read up on serialzing data between Flash and PHP.

A great resource for you to look at is the Flash-DB Website. Specifically, they have tutorials of a multitude of topics including PHP & Flash coms.

You may also think about getting and using amfphp (explained at flash-db.com).

Flash Remote Login +PHP
AMFPHP Information & Documentation

Also, another site that is useful is Sephiroth.it. This is a place which speaks about the serializer class that can be used between Flash & PHP.

Hope this points you in the right direction.
